Chapter 824: Preparing for trouble

At this time, a boss looked hesitant and frowned and said, "If this happens, if things get bigger, won't we take responsibility? If someone sues the official, we will have to lose money."
After hearing this, Han Donglai turned his eyes and looked at a very thin boss.
This person was the Dongzhu of Liu. He remembered that the Dongzhu of Liu had some contact with the county magistrate on weekdays, so he asked, "Lord Liu, I remember you had some friendship with the magistrate?"
Liu Dongzhu nodded slightly, looking a little proud.
"I am quite familiar with the county magistrate and often have some contacts."
When Han Donglai heard this, he felt confident and his eyes were full of viciousness, and he said, "Since that's the case, what else can we be afraid of? With the relationship between Master Liu Dong, even if they sue the official position, we can clear it. There will be no major problems. Let's go and do it!"
When everyone heard this, they felt that they had a support. The heart that was already a little hesitant was instantly thrown away, and they were ready to go to Wenxuan's inn to find some "trouble".
"However, since we are getting together today, we will drink first and talk about other things later." Han Donglai said with a smile.
After hearing Han Donglai's words, everyone agreed.
One said: "Shopkeeper Han is right. Don't worry, we will get together and have a good drink first, which can be considered as a boost for the next thing."
So, a few people asked the waiter to hurry up and prepare the wine and good food. Soon, the table was filled with delicious wine and delicacies.
They sat together, and at first they were just talking about business affairs. The more they talked, the more they felt that the appearance of Wenxuan's inn made them uneasy and their resentment became stronger.
After three rounds of drinking, everyone's faces flushed, and the more they spoke, they became more and more excited.
Han Donglai picked up the wine glass, stood up, and shouted: "Everyone, we drink this wine today. When the afternoon, we will go to Wenxuan's inn together to let them see how powerful we are. We must smash their store to see how they will compete with us for business in the future!"
The others also stood up, raised their glasses and shouted in unison: "Yes, it's time to give them some color, and they must not be able to get better!"
Wenxuan pedaled the bicycle all the way, panting and finally arrived at the Prime Minister's Mansion. She didn't bother to wipe off the fine sweat beads from her forehead, so she hurried to the mansion. But after asking the doorman, she realized that Xi Yu was not at home.
Wenxuan was suddenly a little disappointed and had no place to talk about his anxiety. However, thinking that he had to explain this matter clearly to Xi Yu, he gritted his teeth and decided to wait in the yard.
She found a stone bench and sat down, looking towards the direction of the mansion from time to time, hoping that Xi Yu would come back soon, the arrogant look of Han Donglai and others kept appearing in her mind, and was worried that Xiao Cui would be afraid to stay alone in the inn.
The more I think about it, the more I feel uncomfortable, but I can only wait patiently, hoping that Xi Yu will appear soon to help resolve the crisis.
It was almost noon when Xi Yu returned to the mansion. As soon as he stepped into the mansion, he saw Wenxuan standing in the yard with an anxious look on his face.
When Wenxuan saw Xi Yu, he hurriedly came forward and couldn't help complaining.
"Prime Minister, where are you? I've been waiting for you here for a long time, but I'm so anxious." As he said that, he gave Xi Yu a angrily glance.
When Xi Yu heard this, he frowned slightly and pretended to be serious and said, "Wenxuan, don't mess around, okay? Why do you say that I am also a prime minister now, and this identity is here. When you see me, you should be more polite."
Wenxuan was not afraid at all, and gave him anger a blank look, muttering: "It's time now, I still pay attention to these things. I'm so angry here, so how can I be polite?"
Seeing her like this, Xi Yu knew that something must have happened, so he put away his pretended seriousness, calmed down and asked, "What's wrong? Tell me carefully, don't worry."
Wenxuan then threatened Han Donglai to come to the door yesterday and asked him to leave here and open a shop elsewhere, otherwise he would join forces to boycott her and those unreasonable words to tell Xi Yu all the time.
After hearing this, Xi Yu was surprised and said, "This person is so arrogant."
Wenxuan continued anxiously: "I think they must have some tricks. Maybe they will take action against my store today. I have to be careful."
Xi Yu frowned slightly, thought for a moment and asked, "Didn't you tell them that you are familiar with me and are my people? If you know this relationship, I don't think they dare to act so recklessly."
Wenxuan shook his head in annoyance and sighed: "I was confused by the anger at that time, and my anger was rising. How could I think of this? Now I think about it, I really regret it."
Xi Yu said in a deep voice: "Since that's the case, I must not sit idly by. Humph, they dare to bully people I know like this. It's really arrogance. I'll send two soldiers to your shop for a few days first to see if they dare to act rashly."
When Wenxuan heard this, he was immediately overjoyed, nodded repeatedly, and said gratefully: "Oh, thank you so much. With the soldiers here, I feel much more at ease."
Xi Yu had a smile on the corner of his mouth and continued to joke with Wenxuan.
"Haha, Boss Wen, you have to pay for this soldier's wages. After all, I'm going to protect your store."
Wenxuan was also amused and laughed. He thrust his chest and replied with ease: "You can just leave it. It's not that you can't afford it. As long as you can keep my inn safe, what's the point of spending some wages?"
Xi Yu raised his eyebrows and joked, "Oh, look at your confidence. It seems that when the inn business is good, you will soon become a rich woman. I am afraid that I will not take me, the prime minister, seriously in the future."
Wenxuan looked at Xi Yu with a pretentious look and retorted with a smile.
"What is the Prime Minister saying? Even if I become a rich woman in the future, I have to rely on you to take good care of you. How dare I forget your kindness?"
After saying that, the two of them burst into laughter.
Xi Yu immediately found paper and pen. While the pen tip was wandering, he quickly wrote a note, then handed it to Wenxuan, and said with a smile: "Wenxuan, take this note to the military camp and find the manager there, and ask him to arrange two capable soldiers for you. They will do it as they see the note."
Wenxuan hurriedly took the note, carefully put it away, and replied with an anxious and grateful look: "Thank you, then I'll go to the military camp now, so I can't delay it."
After saying that, he turned around and walked out quickly, and was eager to reach the military camp as soon as possible and take the soldiers back to the inn to deal with possible troubles.
Xi Yu stood there, looking at Wenxuan's departure back, frowned slightly, and thought to himself that when this matter is over, he must go and meet those inn owners who are ignorant of the world, so that they know that it is not easy to let go if they dare to do whatever they want under their noses.
Wenxuan was in a hurry and rushed to the military camp soon after.
She walked straight to the soldiers on duty and expressed her intention: "I will come and select two soldiers on the order of the Prime Minister, and I will report it."
Afterwards, she was taken to the commander of the thousand-person, and Wenxuan hurriedly handed the note over.
The thousand-man took the note and recognized the prime minister's handwriting at a glance. He looked up at Wenxuan and knew in his heart that this person had a close relationship with the prime minister. He immediately agreed readily, waved his hand and said, "Since it is the Prime Minister's order, then you can go to the camp to pick people. After you have chosen it, you can take it away."
Wenxuan thanked him and quickly walked into the military camp.
Her eyes swept over the soldiers, and finally picked two young and strong, tall and straight, feeling that they looked full of energy and could protect the inn.
Wenxuan said to the two, "I'm sorry, the situation is urgent. Please ride a horse and follow me to the shop quickly to prevent any changes."
The two soldiers responded in unison: "Yes, girl, don't worry, I will fulfill my mission!"
After saying that, several people turned over the horse, raised dust from the horse's hooves and galloped towards the inn.
This time, Wenxuan also rode on a horse and walked forward with the two soldiers.
Along the way, the sound of horse hooves clattered, but Wenxuan looked anxious, frowned, and from time to time, he would urge him to urge him.
Seeing that she was so anxious, one of the soldiers comforted her: "Miss Wen, you don't have to be too anxious. Maybe that group of people won't cause trouble. Let's hurry over here, maybe everything is fine."
Wenxuan sighed softly and replied, "I hope so, I just hope to make some mistakes." After a pause, she looked at the two soldiers again and asked, "By the way, I haven't asked what their names are."
The soldier on the left, with a strong face, thick eyebrows and big eyes, first bowed and said loudly: "Miss Wen, whose name is Chen Hu, is responsible for many affairs in the camp on weekdays. After practicing all his skills, he will definitely be able to protect the girl's inn."
The soldier on the right, who looked a little honest and burly, hurriedly bowed and said, "Miss Wen, my name is Zhao Gang. I dare not say anything else. It is not vague to fight a war. With my brother Chen Hu and I, those who make trouble will never be able to go."
Wenxuan heard this and smiled on his face, and said gratefully: "I'm working hard. If I can be safe, I will thank you very much." As he said that, the few of them speeded up and rushed towards the inn.
After Han Donglai waited for several owners to have enough food and drink, his eyes were full of ruthlessness and he began to prepare to go to Wenxuan's inn to cause trouble.
They disdained to take action themselves, so they hired someone to do it.
Soon, a group of gangsters who were flowing in the air gathered around them.
These gangsters usually rely on making trouble on the streets to make trouble. When they hear that they are good, they can also act wildly, and they are all excited.
Han Dong looked at the gangsters and said with a gloomy face: "Listen, you go to the Wenjia Inn later, and make a lot of noise. The more messed up the inside, the better. It would be better to scare the guests so that they dare not come again. If they do it beautifully, the benefits will naturally be indispensable."
When the gangsters heard this, they all responded, their faces full of arrogance, and shouted: "Don't worry, boss, we will definitely do it for you!"
After saying that, under the guidance of the owners, he walked towards Wenxuan's inn cursing and pushed and shoved along the way. His posture seemed to be about to demolish the inn, which attracted passers-by to look at him, but he did not dare to say more, and he only secretly worried about the inn.
Xiao Cui kept guarding the store carefully all morning. Although she was still a little scared, she also forced herself to cheer up and warmly welcomed several customers.
Time passed slowly, but the people who were expected to make trouble never appeared, and everything in the store was still calm.
Xiao Cui secretly breathed a sigh of relief and thought to herself that maybe Han Donglai and the others had discovered their conscience and thought that it was inappropriate to do so, so she gave up the idea of ​​causing trouble.
Or maybe it was because I and the lady were too worried that nothing would happen at all.
Thinking of this, Xiao Cui's tense nerves gradually relaxed, and a relaxed smile appeared on her face. She felt that it might be a false alarm, so she continued to manage the business in the store with peace of mind.
But Xiao Cui never expected that as soon as her thoughts fell, a noisy sound came from outside.
I saw a group of gangsters swearing in. Their attitude was very arrogant. As soon as I entered the door, I shouted at the top of my voice: "Get out of here, I know the truth and leave quickly, otherwise don't blame us for being polite!"
Xiao Cui was so scared that she shivered all over and her face turned a little pale, but she knew she could not retreat, so she gritted her teeth, stood up with a tough time, and asked with courage: "What are you... what are you doing? How can you be so unreasonable!"
At this time, a gangster with a fat face glanced at his eyes, looked up and down at Xiao Cui, and asked viciously: "Are you the boss here?"
Xiao Cui hurriedly replied, "I am not the boss, my lady is, but the lady is not here now. If you have anything to do, it will be the same to me."
When those little gangsters heard this, they burst into laughter.
The speaker just now said with disdain, "Oh, it's okay to tell you, then you can quickly clean up all the people inside. We will set fire to this store today and smash all the things inside, so that you can't open this broken store!"
As he said that, he shook the stick in his hand, looking like he was about to take action at any time.
Xiao Cui was shocked and scared, very anxious, but she still forced herself to hold on. She thought about ways to hold them back and waited for the lady to come back, but she really didn't know what to do for a moment.
Xiao Cui's eyes were red and she asked in a crying voice: "Why do you do this? We do business in a dedicated manner and have not offended you. You are so crazy that you are not afraid of retribution?"
But the gangsters snorted coldly indifferently, and the leader waved his hand impatiently and said, "Where are so many nonsense? We are also on orders to act. I will give you some time to go to the Qing people. Don't toast or not eat or punish the wine."
As they were talking, a few guests heard the noise outside and walked out tremblingly, their faces full of horror.
One of the customers wearing long gowns was so angry that their faces flushed, pointing at the gangsters and shouting: "You are so useless, but we are so scared. We are staying in a store here to consume, and we are so frightened for no reason. We can't just forget it, you have to pay for it!"
When Xiao Cui heard this, she felt even more anxious. She was already worried. She met a customer to claim compensation again. She was so anxious that she couldn't stop crying. She hurriedly comforted the customer while crying.
"Your guest, please calm down first. I will give you an explanation about your affairs. But please avoid this situation for now."
But the customer refused to give in and insisted on asking for an explanation. The scene became more and more chaotic. Xiao Cui felt that the sky was about to collapse, and she just hoped that the lady could come back with the reinforcements as soon as possible.
When a customer saw Xiao Cui's pitiful appearance at first, he felt full of sympathy and silently stood up for her in his heart.
However, when they heard someone shouting to ask Xiao Cui to pay money, these originally sympathetic customers were shaken.
So, they followed those who made fun of it and asked Xiao Cui to pay for it, completely forgetting their previous sympathy for her.
Xiao Cui then raised her eyebrows, opened her eyes wide, straightened her back, raised her voice and told them loudly.
"Let me hear it all, don't act rashly here and do whatever you want! My lady is a big shot with the prime minister today. Who is the prime minister? He is a powerful and powerful figure in the world. If you dare to destroy here without authorization and cause trouble, the consequences will definitely not be afforded by you! Don't talk about you little gangsters at that time, even those who instruct you behind your back will not be able to take advantage of it!"
The gangsters were stunned at first, looked at each other, and then they burst into laughter without restraint.
One of the thief-eyed gangsters took a step forward and pointed at Xiao Cui's nose and said sarcastically: "Hmph, it's ridiculous to dare to scare us under the banner of the prime minister! You, a little girl, can also get to the prime minister's relationship? I think you are a fool and talk nonsense! Don't think that just making up a scary name can scare us, we are not scared!"
"I have told you the truth, do you believe it or not? If you don't believe it, then start to do it."
At this moment, Xiao Cui didn't know where the courage came from, so she actually started to waste with them.
She was particularly afraid of the arrival of troublemakers.
But after the real person arrived, she thought of the prime minister and felt that there was something scary?
At this moment, the gangsters were a little hesitant.
But in the end, one person decided to take action.
"Brothers, don't listen to his nonsense. If he has something to do with the Prime Minister, I will go backwards from now on."
"Yes, we were almost deceived by this little girl."
So at this time, they planned to take action, and Xiao Cui said, "Since that's the case, I'll get out of the way for you. Anyway, there will be times when you regret it."
